So I am not going to claim that I read the whole anime weeboo argument that went on here but from my understanding is that this all started because someone said you cannot have dragons in a sci-fi setting and still have it be good.*cough**cough*Anyways I am interested.


I saw that and I was highly considering on quitting as well because of it. I don't mind anime or Fantasy races, especially for images or even theme; but if you don't even try to make it realistic, especially for a sci-fi RP than why are you even trying to RP in sci-fi? That's basically what I think on the issue.

With that I will be RPing as my Sci-Fi version of a Wraith and might even add in my sci-fi version of a Draconian when I find my CSs. I'll show da kiddies how it be done lol :P

In my personal opinion, I believe that anything from Fantasy or any genre can be converted and used for Sci-fi, and yes, realistically so, if you just stop and think about it.

Believe it or not, Dragons, I find, is actually a very easy aspect to be converted. When you get down to it, when remove the magic, and the mysticism around them, A dragon is simply a reptile that undergone an evolution, most likely through adaptation, that gave them superior intelligence, the ability to fly via wings, and the organic capability to ignite the carbon they breathe out.

I say this because I intend for a Draconian or two or three to be in this. ...4 counting the possible one by Drakel, and I'm kind of interested in how you go about it, Drakel.

As for you Jinxlynx. ...You are welcome to join, but now the Interest check's amount is CLOSED. All room has now been filled.

I was also unsure of what planet, faction, origin or position to create and I was just going to wait things out and see what others did ^.^;;

Yeah, that's my fault, I'm afraid. I intend to explain it in the OOC in detail with all of those. For now, I suggest just waiting on it.

I will say this though: 26 planets, About 4 or 5 factions, and any position you might picture in a crew, or an organization of some kind.

Luckily, and unluckily at the same time, besides a few new members, and at least one drop-out, and me still working on the OOC, nothing yet.

Alright... And I see someone has taken the shape-shifter idea that I had in the last RP... I might as well start over then, lol... Oh well, if this is going to be more realistic sci-fi, I should accommodate, seeing as my last character could unrealistically cause shadows to become solid and control them, etc. etc.... Either way, after you add in some additional information I'll get to work on my CS, but for now, I'm a bit busy, so I'll turn back up soon enough

As I said before, I do agree with that philosophy though when it comes to dragons and elves and such I expect a lot of detail and thought placed into them, something that you'll notice when I post up the my version of the draconian race in the OOC.

As for the race itself it was originally made for a starwars RP that died long ago, I'll just be posting it as an example on what I am talking about. You can play as a member of their race if you'd like and I will admit that it might actually be better than everyone crating 50 versions of the exact same thing. The physiology and biology part was rather easy but then I had to add reasons and history behind them that still gave off a rather fantasy like feel but at the same time still keep it scientific. So... I made that tribal and was RPing out their evolution with Stryder. Of course, for this RP, the race will be played around about 200 years after such events would happen... when they started to build ships for space combat and that like while holding on to their ancient traditions and architecture style.

The back story isn't finished, most of it was going to be left out for the time being, and I'm not sure I'm too keen on hearing...I'd prefer constructive criticism. I'm not sure what your 'normal self' would say, but you play it up in an unsavory way like you know it would be considered insulting. I can only guess.


Alrighty then I'd wait till it is finished.

damn... I've been out of the game lately lol. I guess it'll be best for stryder to explain it :P
